    Very nice. I like the treatment of the sky and follage.

    I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

    Thanks Tom. I tried some different schemes and this seemed best for this image.

    I like the composition, the leading line, the tree placement, the IR...

    In short, I like it thumb.gif

    Howdy Ziggy,

    Very nice, I really like the crisp whites and the nice tone/shade of blue in the Sky, and the neat Composition wraps it all up for a very nice image!!!

    Look forward to seeing more of your work!!!
    Take care,

    Thanks Randy. I had to crop the image to strengthen the composition, but the basic image was there to begin with. I actually drove by it, then backed up when I realized what I saw. I was hoping for some more clouds but ...

    Thanks Craig. I'm pretty new to color IR but I do like the flexibility of the tools in Photoshop to help deal with it.

    Thanks TW. Color is a very relative term in IR and it's also very malleable compared to "normal" spectrum photography.

    Looks like winter in the summer time :D Very good indeed thumb.gif

    Hopefully some day I'll get an IR camera. It looks like it's so much fun to shoot with.

    Thanks Mary. It's kind of like a box of chocolates in that it's hard to predict exactly what you finally get.

    Wow, Ziggy--I don't think I've actually seen any of your shots before--just all the great gear advice!! :D

    This is super--I like the IR treatment. And, like Randy said, the leading line is thumb.gif . Well done!

    Thanks Lauren. I do show some stuff now and again. I have another image coming up that has the opposite of a leading line; a "bounding line/framing line".

    Thanks Allan. That's the thing about IR, the tones are different from visible light so our expectations are different as well. You can push the color tones around until they are pleasing (almost never that way out of the camera.)
